Your legislators are pushing through last-minute amendments to Governor Pillen’s tax plan that would INCREASE the current excise tax rate for distilled spirits.
This increase is a hospitality tax that harms businesses – from distilleries to restaurants and bars – as well as your own wallet!
If this tax increase is passed, there will be significant job loss with local distillers already fearing closures. Nebraskans are projected to lose their jobs because of significant decline in retail alcohol sales. Your local retailer will lose business to border states that have lower prices.
These amendments could be up for consideration NOW! Make your voice heard and SAY NO to additional taxes on distilled spirits.
Consumers like you and a hospitality sector that has yet to fully recover from the pandemic shouldn’t be punished with increased taxes.
Don’t wait. Send a letter to your legislators TODAY.
